Corilla danzando by Girolamo Frescobaldi — Lyrics
About Corilla danzando
From the Italian Baroque master Girolamo Frescobaldi comes Corilla danzando, a charming secular aria for treble voices (SAT). The text paints a picture of Corilla dancing in a meadow, with the playful breeze caressing her golden hair. The singer, captivated by her beauty and devotedly in love, expresses a longing to be that very breeze, surrounding the object of their adoration. This piece offers a delightful opportunity to explore expressive text-painting and delicate vocal interplay within a Renaissance/early Baroque context.
